The fourth grade students at LES worked extremely hard on their black history projects. They were able to show off their hard work at school today at the Wax Museum. Each student created a presentation on their Chromebook, as well as a poster and written essay. Some students dressed up to represent the person they studied. These students did a phenomenal job with this project! We are so proud of them!

Mrs. Cox's class enjoyed a visit from our local 4-H Agent, Elizabeth Snipes! 🍀 We have been learning about electrical circuits in fourth grade. They had an opportunity to make their own circuits using copper tape, a light bulb, and battery. They quickly learned that electricity moves in a closed circuit. Gaps in the copper will stop the flow. We used many problem-solving skills throughout this activity. We enjoyed having Mrs. Elizabeth in our classroom today and can't wait until she is able to come back!

She read a great book entitled “Love You Forever” to Mrs. Short’s class in celebration of Valentine’s Day. The students gained a different perspective of what it means to truly love someone for Valentine’s Day.

Mrs. Cox- 4th Grade
These students worked hard to fill up their iReady poster. For every 100 they made on a lesson, they colored in a square. They completed the poster and earned a reward of their choosing! They ended their Friday with Krispy Kreme Donuts and free time!

These fourth graders were selected to go to the first Liberty Day at the South Carolina State House. Liberty Day was a special event to celebrate the 250th anniversary of America's Independence. Fourth graders from around the state stepped into the Statehouse, which was transformed into a classroom. State Leaders such as Governor Henry McMaster and South Carolina Superintendent of Education, Ellen Weaver, shared stories centered around our state's pivotal role in the American Revolution. They expressed the importance of civic participation.
Students met historical interpreters and participated in hands-on, interactive experiences. They watched a performance from the Gullah Traveling Theater, which provided an encouraging message, to go out and live with liberty in their hearts!
Mrs. Coleman and Mrs. Cox are thankful they had the opportunity to take their classes on such a memorable field trip!
